If anyone could give me some help that'd be great, I haven't scripted in awhile and I forgot a few things about datastores, please help if you can.
Error:
07:41:37.793 - 104: Cannot store Dictionary in DataStore 07:41:37.794 - Stack Begin 07:41:37.794 - Script 'ServerScriptService.DataStore', Line 44 07:41:37.795 - Stack End
Code:
local dataService = game:GetService("DataStoreService"):GetDataStore("Alpha #1")
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:wait()
local stats = Instance.new("Folder", plr)
stats.Name = "Stats"
local money = Instance.new("NumberValue", stats)
money.Name = "Money"
money.Value = 500
local subscribers = Instance.new("NumberValue", stats)
subscribers.Name = "Subscribers"
local channel = Instance.new("StringValue", stats)
channel.Name = "Channel"
local characterCreated = Instance.new("BoolValue", stats)
characterCreated.Name = "characterCreated"
characterCreated.Value = false
local hair = Instance.new("StringValue", stats)
hair.Name = "Hair"

local playerKey = plr.UserId .. "-key"
local savedValues = dataService:GetAsync(playerKey)
if not savedValues then
local valuesToSave = {}
for i,v in pairs(stats:GetChildren()) do
valuesToSave[tostring(v.Name)] = v.Value
end
dataService:SetAsync(playerKey, valuesToSave)
print("Successfully Saved Data!")
else
for i,v in pairs(savedValues) do
stats[tostring(i)].Value = v
end
print("Successfully Loaded Data!")
end
end)

local playerKey = plr.UserId .. "-key"
local valuesToSave = {}

can you friend me in roblox so you can help me with datastore? Thats the only skill i need to learn before i can truely declare my self a master
If you don't even know datastore you're far away from a master dude,datastore is the most important thing in scripting
I think you just have to use table.insert instead of usingvaluesToSave[tostring(v.Name)] = v.Value
I figured it out, I didn't know you couldn't save a Color3Value
